Transparency

tell me everything you’re feeling as of late

the things you’ve done with the friends you fake.

as if anyone asked in the first place.

where’s the sustenance in being ostentatious?

your life is governed by news feeds and notifications

and what better way to harbor pity

than telling everyone who passed away

and how much they meant to me

like it’s a competition

you should learn to keep to yourself

and all i want is for everyone to be aware of

their own transparency

instead of practicing modesty

you plaster your life on cell phone screens for all to see

i guess you’ll never get it

nothing’s sacred

fed up with this generation of too much information

there isn’t anything social about it

because of the way you regurgitate

your bullshit into cyberspace

spreading ignorance like common plague

i can’t stand it

it’s pathetic

and all i want is for everyone to be aware of

their own transparency

instead of practicing modesty

you plaster your life on cell phone screens for all to see

i guess you’ll never get it

nothing’s sacred

nothing's sacred.
